High Turn Over of Staff in Retail Industry

NAME : HIGH TURN OVER of STAFF in RETAIL INDUSTRY

PROBLEM : Why is there a high turn over of staff in Retail Industry?

CONTEXT : In most of the retail outlets you will find students(between 18 to 24 years) or individuals who have
retired early( 55+ of age and above) are being employed. Employees from the students category do
not take their jobs seriously. Firstly, because the younger people are not satisfied with wages they get paid and secondly, the employers do not put much effort into employees career
development.

SOLUTION : Employers should have career paths designed for employees who would like to make their
careers with the company by having trainning & development session and this can be done by
PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT REVIEW (PDR) every half yearly. This PDR should give
a general view of where the employees is being groomed on and this will build the relationship
between the managers and the employees which plays a part in creating sence of taking
responsibility and commitment.
